From: Metabolic and enzymatic changes associated with carbon mobilization, utilization and replenishment triggered in grain amaranth (Amaranthus cruentus) in response to partial defoliation by mechanical injury or insect herbivory

Figure 2

Sucrose, glucose and fructose levels measured at different days post partial defoliation (dppd) in (A) source leaves, (B) stems, (C) roots and (D) panicles of intact control and defoliated Amaranthus cruentus plants. Defoliation was produced either by insect herbivory (HD) or mechanical damage (MD). For further details refer to Figure 1.
